Duncan Lewis Solicitors Ltd

I would like to thank caseworker Fiza Bilal, Pardeep Somel and Ayana Musaeva for the exceptional support they gave me in my immigration case. From the beginning they understood that I am still dealing with a lot mentally after separating from my husband due to domestic abuse. Every call and email conversation showed not only professionalism but understanding of my mental health. They helped me understand immigration laws pertaining to my case and were available throughout till my application was successful. They made me feel seen and that assured me that I have the best support. Thank you so much for being solicitors who saw me before they see a case number, listening to my story made me feel heard and understood after what I have been through, my visa being successful is the best cherry on top.

I cannot recommend Alleena highly enough. She has assisted me on several occasions over the years, most recently with my Stage 1 deportation matter, and her professionalism, expertise, and dedication have been exceptional throughout. From the outset, Alleena was incredibly efficient, responsive, and thorough in handling my case. She took the time to explain every step of the process clearly, kept me updated throughout, and always ensured I understood my options. During what was an extremely stressful and important matter, her knowledge and guidance gave me confidence and reassurance. What truly stands out about Alleena is her commitment to her clients. She genuinely cares, listens, and goes above and beyond to achieve the best possible outcome. Her attention to detail, strong work ethic, and determination were evident throughout my case and have been on previous occasions when she has helped me. Thanks to Alleena’s hard work and expertise, I felt supported every step of the way. If you are looking for a solicitor who is professional, knowledgeable, compassionate, and highly effective, I would not hesitate to recommend her services. I am incredibly grateful for all of her help and support and cannot thank her enough.

I would like to share my experience with Duncan Lewis Solicitors regarding my complex immigration matter. From the very beginning, their professionalism and dedication stood out. My case was highly complex and extremely time-sensitive. It involved serious Home Office delays, errors in service of documents, contradictory decisions, and urgent family circumstances. Despite all of this, the team handled everything with exceptional clarity, structure, and confidence. They demonstrated deep knowledge of immigration law and adopted a clear, strategic approach that gave me real hope when I needed it most. A special thank you to Solicitor Alleena Akhtar and Director Tamana Aziz. Their support throughout this process has been truly outstanding. Alleena Akhtar made me feel genuinely supported, understood, and cared for at every stage even when I was anxious and thousands of miles away in Nigeria. The level of duty of care I received was immaculate. She was consistently attentive, responsive, and genuinely committed to my case. Communication was excellent emails and letters were always clear, timely, and easy to understand, and she responded quickly even during urgent periods. The quality of service and availability was first-class. They were always available when I needed them and handled every step with precision, urgency, and compassion. What impressed me most is how clearly they know what they are doing in immigration cases. Their experience and legal knowledge shine through in the way they manage difficult situations and fight for the right outcome. If you are dealing with any immigration issue especially one involving Home Office errors, delays, or urgent family circumstances Duncan Lewis Solicitors are the best. I would strongly recommend them to anyone who wants their case handled professionally, expertly, and with real care. You will be in safe, experienced hands and given the support you need to achieve the right result. I am truly grateful for everything they have done for me and my family. Thank you again.

From a complex case to UK residency in just two months—thank you, Hina! When I decided to apply for asylum, from the very first consultation with Hina via our online meeting, she believed in my claim without requesting any type of evidence. She told me, "If you are unable to pay for the service, I am willing to support your application in full." I informed her that I work online independently and would be able to pay. Hina knew my case was complex and that it would be hard to prove my claims, so she guided and helped me. Several times, Hina worked during both the weekdays and the weekends. She even sent me emails after 1:00 AM, and finally, within two months of applying for asylum, my application to the Home Office was accepted. I was granted refugee status without them requesting any evidence or an applicant's asylum statement. I only did the first screening, then within one month, the Home Office emailed me with my first interview, and today I am officially a resident.I did not use any public social media platforms to prove my claims; I just hired Hina. I always followed her advice and I never argued with her. I just asked her all the time, "Do you think I should do these things?" She always responded with honesty, "Thamer, the decision is up to you, but I think you should do it." I always trusted her because she never let me down and always recommended the right things for me.Lastly, Hina Kargar will, one day, be well-known globally because she is the most powerful woman I have dealt with in my entire life. Thank you, Hina Kargar. You helped me to achieve my childhood dream. You know that I originally came to the UK for a two-week vacation, and you also know why I decided to apply for asylum.I decided to celebrate my victory today in my own way. I purchased an England football shirt and printed your name on it, including the number three, which matches 03/06/2026—the day you informed me that the Home Office accepted my application. Whenever I wear this T-shirt, I want people to read your name so they can know who is behind me: the most powerful woman, Hina Kargar.

I’m really grateful to my solicitor Hema Yaramachu for their professional support and guidance throughout my asylum case. They were clear, supportive, and played a big role in helping me get a positive refugee decision.
